1563513d34 RT: fix push_rt_task() to handle dequeue_pushable properly
A panic was discovered by Chirag Jog where a BUG_ON sanity check
in the new "pushable_task" logic would trigger a panic under
certain circumstances:

http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/9/25/189

Gilles Carry discovered that the root cause was attributed to the
pushable_tasks list getting corrupted in the push_rt_task logic.
This was the result of a dropped rq lock in double_lock_balance
allowing a task in the process of being pushed to potentially migrate
away, and thus corrupt the pushable_tasks() list.

I traced back the problem as introduced by the pushable_tasks patch
that went in recently.   There is a "retry" path in push_rt_task()
that actually had a compound conditional to decide whether to
retry or exit.  I missed the meaning behind the rationale for the
virtual "if(!task) goto out;" portion of the compound statement and
thus did not handle it properly.  The new pushable_tasks logic
actually creates three distinct conditions:

1) an untouched and unpushable task should be dequeued
2) a migrated task where more pushable tasks remain should be retried
3) a migrated task where no more pushable tasks exist should exit

The original logic mushed (1) and (3) together, resulting in the
system dequeuing a migrated task (against an unlocked foreign run-queue
nonetheless).

To fix this, we get rid of the notion of "paranoid" and we support the
three unique conditions properly.  The paranoid feature is no longer
relevant with the new pushable logic (since pushable naturally limits
the loop) anyway, so lets just remove it.

917b627d4d sched: create "pushable_tasks" list to limit pushing to one attempt
The RT scheduler employs a "push/pull" design to actively balance tasks
within the system (on a per disjoint cpuset basis).  When a task is
awoken, it is immediately determined if there are any lower priority
cpus which should be preempted.  This is opposed to the way normal
SCHED_OTHER tasks behave, which will wait for a periodic rebalancing
operation to occur before spreading out load.

When a particular RQ has more than 1 active RT task, it is said to
be in an "overloaded" state.  Once this occurs, the system enters
the active balancing mode, where it will try to push the task away,
or persuade a different cpu to pull it over.  The system will stay
in this state until the system falls back below the <= 1 queued RT
task per RQ.

However, the current implementation suffers from a limitation in the
push logic.  Once overloaded, all tasks (other than current) on the
RQ are analyzed on every push operation, even if it was previously
unpushable (due to affinity, etc).  Whats more, the operation stops
at the first task that is unpushable and will not look at items
lower in the queue.  This causes two problems:

1) We can have the same tasks analyzed over and over again during each
   push, which extends out the fast path in the scheduler for no
   gain.  Consider a RQ that has dozens of tasks that are bound to a
   core.  Each one of those tasks will be encountered and skipped
   for each push operation while they are queued.

2) There may be lower-priority tasks under the unpushable task that
   could have been successfully pushed, but will never be considered
   until either the unpushable task is cleared, or a pull operation
   succeeds.  The net result is a potential latency source for mid
   priority tasks.

This patch aims to rectify these two conditions by introducing a new
priority sorted list: "pushable_tasks".  A task is added to the list
each time a task is activated or preempted.  It is removed from the
list any time it is deactivated, made current, or fails to push.

This works because a task only needs to be attempted to push once.
After an initial failure to push, the other cpus will eventually try to
pull the task when the conditions are proper.  This also solves the
problem that we don't completely analyze all tasks due to encountering
an unpushable tasks.  Now every task will have a push attempted (when
appropriate).

This reduces latency both by shorting the critical section of the
rq->lock for certain workloads, and by making sure the algorithm
considers all eligible tasks in the system.

967fc04671 sched: add sched_class->needs_post_schedule() member
We currently run class->post_schedule() outside of the rq->lock, which
means that we need to test for the need to post_schedule outside of
the lock to avoid a forced reacquistion.  This is currently not a problem
as we only look at rq->rt.overloaded.  However, we want to enhance this
going forward to look at more state to reduce the need to post_schedule to
a bare minimum set.  Therefore, we introduce a new member-func called
needs_post_schedule() which tests for the post_schedule condtion without
actually performing the work.  Therefore it is safe to call this
function before the rq->lock is released, because we are guaranteed not
to drop the lock at an intermediate point (such as what post_schedule()
may do).

We will use this later in the series

8f45e2b516 sched: make double-lock-balance fair
double_lock balance() currently favors logically lower cpus since they
often do not have to release their own lock to acquire a second lock.
The result is that logically higher cpus can get starved when there is
a lot of pressure on the RQs.  This can result in higher latencies on
higher cpu-ids.

This patch makes the algorithm more fair by forcing all paths to have
to release both locks before acquiring them again.  Since callsites to
double_lock_balance already consider it a potential preemption/reschedule
point, they have the proper logic to recheck for atomicity violations.

7e96fa5875 sched: pull only one task during NEWIDLE balancing to limit critical section
git-id c4acb2c066 attempted to limit
newidle critical section length by stopping after at least one task
was moved.  Further investigation has shown that there are other
paths nested further inside the algorithm which still remain that allow
long latencies to occur with newidle balancing.  This patch applies
the same technique inside balance_tasks() to limit the duration of
this optional balancing operation.

There is no sense in wasting time trying to push a task away that
cannot move anywhere else.  We gain no benefit from trying to push
other tasks at this point, so if the task being woken up is non
migratable, just skip the whole operation.  This reduces overhead

74ab8e4f64 sched: use highest_prio.next to optimize pull operations
We currently take the rq->lock for every cpu in an overload state during
pull_rt_tasks().  However, we now have enough information via the
highest_prio.[curr|next] fields to determine if there is any tasks of
interest to warrant the overhead of the rq->lock, before we actually take
it.  So we use this information to reduce lock contention during the
pull for the case where the source-rq doesnt have tasks that preempt
the current task.

100fdaee70 sched: add SD_BALANCE_NEWIDLE at MC and CPU level for sched_mc>0
Impact: change task balancing to save power more agressively

Add SD_BALANCE_NEWIDLE flag at MC level and CPU level
if sched_mc is set.  This helps power savings and
will not affect performance when sched_mc=0

Ingo and Mike Galbraith have optimised the SD flags by
removing SD_BALANCE_NEWIDLE at MC and CPU level.  This
helps performance but hurts power savings since this
slows down task consolidation by reducing the number
of times load_balance is run.

ad273b32e4 sched: activate active load balancing in new idle cpus
Impact: tweak task balancing to save power more agressively

Active load balancing is a process by which migration thread
is woken up on the target CPU in order to pull current
running task on another package into this newly idle
package.

This method is already in use with normal load_balance(),
this patch introduces this method to new idle cpus when
sched_mc is set to POWERSAVINGS_BALANCE_WAKEUP.

This logic provides effective consolidation of short running
daemon jobs in a almost idle system

The side effect of this patch may be ping-ponging of tasks
if the system is moderately utilised. May need to adjust the
iterations before triggering.

7eb52dfa70 sched: bias task wakeups to preferred semi-idle packages
Impact: tweak task wakeup to save power more agressively

Preferred wakeup cpu (from a semi idle package) has been
nominated in find_busiest_group() in the previous patch.  Use
this information in sched_mc_preferred_wakeup_cpu in function
wake_idle() to bias task wakeups if the following conditions
are satisfied:

        - The present cpu that is trying to wakeup the process is
          idle and waking the target process on this cpu will
          potentially wakeup a completely idle package
        - The previous cpu on which the target process ran is
          also idle and hence selecting the previous cpu may
          wakeup a semi idle cpu package
        - The task being woken up is allowed to run in the
          nominated cpu (cpu affinity and restrictions)

Basically if both the current cpu and the previous cpu on
which the task ran is idle, select the nominated cpu from semi
idle cpu package for running the new task that is waking up.

Cache hotness is considered since the actual biasing happens
in wake_idle() only if the application is cache cold.

This technique will effectively move short running bursty jobs in
a mostly idle system.

Wakeup biasing for power savings gets automatically disabled if
system utilisation increases due to the fact that the probability
of finding both this_cpu and prev_cpu idle decreases.

7a09b1a27b sched: nominate preferred wakeup cpu
Impact: extend load-balancing code (no change in behavior yet)

When the system utilisation is low and more cpus are idle,
then the process waking up from sleep should prefer to
wakeup an idle cpu from semi-idle cpu package (multi core
package) rather than a completely idle cpu package which
would waste power.

Use the sched_mc balance logic in find_busiest_group() to
nominate a preferred wakeup cpu.

This info can be stored in appropriate sched_domain, but
updating this info in all copies of sched_domain is not
practical.  Hence this information is stored in root_domain
struct which is one copy per partitioned sched domain.
The root_domain can be accessed from each cpu's runqueue
and there is one copy per partitioned sched domain.

Just in case two groups have identical load, prefer to move load to lower
logical cpu number rather than the present logic of moving to higher logical

find_busiest_group() tries to look for a group_leader that has spare capacity
to take more tasks and freeup an appropriate least loaded group.  Just in case
there is a tie and the load is equal, then the group with higher logical number
is favoured.  This conflicts with user space irqbalance daemon that will move
interrupts to lower logical number if the system utilisation is very low.

Variable levels of power saving tunable would benefit end user to

a775a38b13 x86: fix cpu_mask_to_apicid_and to include cpu_online_mask
Impact: fix potential APIC crash

In determining the destination apicid, there are usually three cpumasks
that are considered: the incoming cpumask arg, cfg->domain and the
cpu_online_mask.  Since we are just introducing the cpu_mask_to_apicid_and
function, make sure it includes the cpu_online_mask in it's evaluation.
[Added with this patch.]

There are two io_apic.c functions that did not previously use the
cpu_online_mask:  setup_IO_APIC_irq and msi_compose_msg.  Both of these
simply used cpu_mask_to_apicid(cfg->domain & TARGET_CPUS), and all but
one arch (NUMAQ[*]) returns only online cpus in the TARGET_CPUS mask,
so the behavior is identical for all cases.

[*: NUMAQ bug?]

Note that alloc_cpumask_var is only used for the 32-bit cases where
it's highly likely that the cpumask set size will be small and therefore
CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=n.  But if that's not the case, failing the allocate
will cause the same return value as the default.

331c313510 cifs: fix buffer overrun in parse_DFS_referrals
While testing a kernel with memory poisoning enabled, I saw some warnings
about the redzone getting clobbered when chasing DFS referrals. The
buffer allocation for the unicode converted version of the searchName is
too small and needs to take null termination into account.

This patch adds the "Superial" USB-Serial converter to pl2303 so that it
is detected, by the correct driver.  Adds the relevant vendor:product
(5372:2303) to the device tables in pl2303.c & pl2303.h.  The patch has
been tested against 2.6.24-22-generic.

24c0996a6b USB: skip Set-Interface(0) if already in altsetting 0
When a driver unbinds from an interface, usbcore always sends a
Set-Interface request to reinstall altsetting 0.  Unforunately, quite
a few devices have buggy firmware that crashes when it receives this
request.

To avoid such problems, this patch (as1180) arranges to send the
Set-Interface request only when the interface is not already in
altsetting 0.

9a9fafb894 USB: fix comment about endianness of descriptors
This patch fixes a comment and clarifies the documentation about the
endianness of descriptors. The current policy is that descriptors will
be little-endian at the API even on big-endian systems; however the
/proc/bus/usb API predates this policy and presents descriptors with
some multibyte fields byte-swapped.
